From Birthright Betrayed 08-09:
Rising Star (Sovereign Court Faction):
You can use your Downtime to attempt a Knowledge (nobility) check to build connections within Taldor’s elaborate
noble hierarchy, laying the groundwork for your own promotion later. The DC of this check is equal to 15 + 1/2 your
character level (minimum +0). If you succeed, check one of the boxes below. If your check exceeds the DC by 10 or more,
you can instead check two boxes.

I'd prefer not to run it with seven players, especially since Pathfinder Quests tend to be easier than scenarios because of the 15 minute adventuring day. However I would be open to running two tables, preferably one at subtier 1-2 and the other at subtier 4-5.
Subtier 1-2
Mikhail- dwarf inquisitor 2
Etna- halfling swashbuckler 1
Regis- human fighter 1
Xiao- kitsune sorcerer 2
Either subtier
Giovanni- human rogue 3
Everbloom- kitsune kineticist 3
Subtier 4-5
Woodthorne- human oracle 4
I'll put up another post in the recruitment thread looking for more players. We have lots of time before the convention starts, so it's no problem there.
Dotting for the lowest tier.
Would I get "out-of-subtier" gold in either case?
Yes, you would.

I would like to offer the services of my 4th level paladin of Iomedae. I have not used him in a while and never in pbp. Just for sanity sake, are any of these 5 quests particularly devious or dishonest in nature? Orst has a hard time lying or taking advantage of others. If the tasks are darker in nature i could offer my ranger archer also 4th level.
Note: i have not signed up on any gameday lists so if i am jumping line, just let me know and ignore my post.

Paladin should be fine for this scenario, and you are in the right place for signups.
I'd like that slot in the lower tier game, if possible.
That should be fine.
The way this is panning out, the split will go something like this:
Tier 1-2
Reginald, human witch 1
Mikhail, dwarf inquisitor 2
Regis, human fighter 1
Xiao, kitsune sorcerer 2
Giovanni, human rogue 3
Oops, gnome sorcerer 1
Tier 1-2 (playing down) or Tier 4-5 (playing up)
Smiley, dwarf brawler 3, or Yugatta, half elf monk 3
Wydroe, human paladin 4
Hskoru, nagaji fighter 3
Everbloom, kitsune kineticist 3
Woodthorne, human oracle 4
I'm going to leave recruitment for now in an attempt to get a sixth for the second group.

Ole Smiley's mighty grateful ye made room for him. Har!
Tier 1-2Reginald, human witch 1
Mikhail, dwarf inquisitor 2
Regis, human fighter 1
Xiao, kitsune sorcerer 2
Giovanni, human rogue 3
Oops, gnome sorcerer 1
What, me healer???
My chief means of healing is surprise - surprise, and fear! TWO! Two chief means of healing: Fear, surprise, and a discount cure light wounds wand with only 20 charges, so if anyone else has a healing wand that Reginald and I can do most of that beneficent work with, that would be good...THREE! Okay. AMONGST my means of healing are SUCH DIVERSE ELEMENTS as....
Since the last player is 1st level, we will definitely be playing down in both tables. Soooo, I might adjust the groups a little bit. That said, neither group has anybody that seems built aimed towards healing, so a wand of cure light wounds will likely be the main form of positive energy magic in either group.
Table A, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 1/3)
Woodthorne, human oracle 4
Giovanni, human rogue 3
Everbloom, kitsune kineticist 3
Xiao, kitsune sorcerer 2
Dana, human bard 1
Regis, human fighter 1
Table B, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 1/3)
Wydroe, human paladin 4
Hskoru, nagaji fighter 3
Smiley, dwarf brawler 3
Mikhail, dwarf inquisitor 2
Oops, gnome sorcerer 1
Reginald, human witch 1
That is what I'm probably looking at. Any issues or requests for a switch?

Har! Ye got some funny numbers there with a slash through 'em. Ole Smiley kind of remembers those from Maths class, but Ole Smiley was too busy crackin' heads after school to pay much notice to funny numbers.
Smiley is fine with this set up. I think he and Mikhail will get along great.
And Smiley has a shiny unused wand of Makes-Ya-Feel-Better which everyone should use (like, seriously -- by the time it uses its last charge it'll be mostly worthless). He also has a tankard of Makes-Ya-Feel-Invincible-And-Able-To-Sing-Karaoke-Without-Pants Dwarven Stout, but he's not sharing that.
No problem, I think we can figure it out. Let's see...
Table 1, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 1/3)
Woodthorne, human oracle 4
Giovanni, human rogue 3
Everbloom, kitsune kineticist 3
Xiao, kitsune sorcerer 2
Dana, human bard 1
Regis, human fighter 1
Table 2, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 2/3)
Wydroe, human paladin 4
Hskoru, nagaji fighter 3
Smiley, dwarf brawler 3
Mikhail, dwarf inquisitor 2
Tholand, dwarf monk 3
Reginald, human witch 1
Really, I think we can add Tholand, your monk, to the second table, without any major issues. Plus it really stacks that group with dwarves, which is always cool.
There are now gameplay threads open for both games, so feel free to dot in on the appropriate gameplay thread, unless anyone has any suggestions or requests for the groups to be moved around.
We will set out for Isger on August 13th.
Sorry, just one question to be compliant. Is it possible that the second table would have to play high tier with 4 party adjustments if the APL is between tiers?
I believe that since the second party is basically APL 3 (you round to the nearest whole number), that it could choose to play in either subtier.
I don't know about the playing with 4 player adjustments thing, but I could be out of date on something, so feel free to enlighten me.

Hello GM, I am really new to this as well. I just remembered this due to a game I played a while ago. ;-)
I just checked the guide (page 11, left column).
"Starting with Season 4, scenarios were designed for six characters and contained methods to adjust for tables with four players. When the APL of a table is between two subtiers (like APL 3 for a Tier 1–5 scenario), a party
of four characters must play the lower tier without any adjustments for party size.
A party of five to seven characters whose APL falls between two subtiers must play the higher tier with the four-character adjustments found throughout the scenario.
In the fringe case where there are no PCs that are high enough level to have reached the subtier level (such as a party of six 3rd-level characters), the group can decide to play the lower subtier."

So if the party would be like this we could all play low-tier:
Table 1, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 5/6) but all players 3rd level or lower
Giovanni, human rogue 3
Everbloom, kitsune kineticist 3
Hskoru, nagaji fighter 3
Smiley, dwarf brawler 3
Tholand, dwarf monk 3
Mikhail, dwarf inquisitor 2
* * *
Table 2, Tier 1-2 (APL 2 1/3)
Wydroe, human paladin 4
Xiao, kitsune sorcerer 2
Reginald, human witch 1
Dana, human bard 1
Regis, human fighter 1
Woodthorne, human oracle 4

You're quite right. Well, that grouping works equally well for me, so long as no one has any objections. Thanks for the help, Noral.
